Laveen Students Take Virtual Field Trip

Imagine staring into the eye of a miniature Category 5 hurricane or getting up close with a strand of DNA. The Google Augmented Reality (AR) Pioneer Program visited Laveen Elementary School with tools that allowed students to do just that!

Laveen Elementary students went on AR field trips, using AR technology to place 3D objects in the physical classroom. Students walked all around the objects, got in close to spot details, and stepped back to see the full picture. The Expeditions AR program allowed teachers to bring the world into their classrooms, helping engage students with immersive lessons that aligned with grade level standards.
